We checked the crab pots this morning after putting them out last night, and I was surprised we didn't get anything. Mangrove creek, muddy bottom - does it get better?

Ship's Log: December 2011
http://seasprint-ships-log.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, 31 December 2011. 31st December, 2011. Given there was strong wind warning for this area in place all day today, and it was blowing 25-30kts outside Curtis Island, we made the right decision to stay inside Curtis Island and come through The Narrows. We passed through The Narrows on our way north on 30th July with a Gladstone high tide of 3.5m, and showed a least depth of 2.1m as we went through. High tide today was 3.3m at 1:30pm, so we had enough water. Heather tried calling the marina on the ...

Sunday, 15 January 2012. 15th January, 2012. We spent yesterday relaxing at Mooloolaba, including a trip across the road to the beach so the kids could boogie board. It was a good, fun day. The wind had remained basically from the east at around 16kts for the duration. Sailing on a close reach allowed good speed and we averaged a little over 7kts over ground. It was a fantastic sail, good fun, and a great way to finish the trip. 0 hr, 53 min (cumulative: 139 hr, 34 min). 15th January, 2012.

Ship's Log: 12th January, 2012
http://seasprint-ships-log.blogspot.com/2012/01/12th-january-2012.html
Friday, 13 January 2012. 12th January, 2012. At 9:30pm, we raised the anchor and motored past the special mark with a least depth sounding of 1.7m. We anchored on the south side of Inskip Point at 9:45pm; virtually in the same spot we were thirteen hours prior. I would like to get an early start tomorrow and leave around 7:00am so we are in a position to cross the bar from 7:30am (high tide is 10:39am) as we now have to sail 60nm or so to Mooloolaba. 2 hr, 00 min (cumulative: 134 hr, 22 min).
